[QUOTE="joshpoints, post: 564527, member: 546465"] I've seen states that said 1.1 million net jobs have been created I believe. I'll have to look this back up some time. As for economics. You don't have to run a deficit during a war and recession but if you don't you're going to end up even worse off with people's standard of living dumping. Like I've said before Fiscal policy was used to through cutting taxes and increasing government spending. When these two actions are taken the economy receive a huge jump start. If only one action is taken the effect isn't as strong. Now there will be times when the economy is strong to take monetary action or fiscal action to prevent overheating of the economy (high inflation). Now if our economy gets strong and Bush continues this action while the reserve doesn't take any action with rates then we're going to have problems. The deficit as a percentage of GDP is low. Once the economy is strong again taxation can be increased and spending can be decreased to get out of the deficit. The danger of taking activity now to reverse the deficit is that the economy will suffer. War is definitely plays a role in the deficit afterall you have to fuel the planes and supply the ammunition for the soldiers. We've lost a few helicopters which aren't cheap. Combine that with the repairs required from flying over there in a very dusty climate and the cost keeps going up. Something that scared me about edwards is he said we are going to get every child in america to have health care. He didn't say we are going to get every american child health care. So we are going to let illegals **** even more money out of the system. If any of their kids are sick all they have to do is ship them over here for free treatment. [/QUOTE]
